Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I found this cool fabric at Walmart again. It was in panels. I love the colors so I figured I would work around it. My son says “hey mom, that looks like Stitch from the movie Lilo and Stitch”. I had no clue. Anyway, I think it made a great Tara dress. I am still working on closing the V neck a bit. It looks nice with a tank underneath but today it is 96 degrees outside but with the humidity it feels over 100. I want to be as cool as possible. I wore it to the beach and it was perfect.

I love your dress! It was so funny I was looking at this picture going “I know I’ve been to that beach…” Then I found out you are in Jacksonville, Fl and everything made sense! I am in Jacksonville too and I’m so happy to see someone else on here that’s close!
